CRNE - Do they give temporary visas?

I am a registered nurse here in the Philippines & I have a friend in Canada who advised me to complete my 1 year experience here as a nurse so that I can take the CRNE there at Canada. I was just wondering, does Canada give out temporary visas so I can take the exam? :D How could I get one? :nurse:

You need to apply for a tourist visa or alternatively find a employer willing to assist you once you have eligibility fro college of registered nurses and start working in Canada before you sit the exam. Information can be found on the CIC website

I think it's important to point out that before you can sit for the CRNE, you first need to apply for assessment in the province where you intend to practice. This takes months, over a year even. Additionally, the Canadian Embassy in Manila has been known to reject applications for visas for the purpose of SEC assessment and, quite logically, to sit for the CRNE in Canada. Please review other threads on this forum that refer to this topic. There's a serious disconnect between how things are supposed to be done and the conditions prevailing on the ground. Do some real research so you can determine what path to take. Asking around is not a bad thing, but do your homework and don't rely on hearsay. That way, you'll be able to expend your time and resources wisely. Good luck!
